Emergency Light Testing

Pinnacle Testing Solutions Ltd offer a professional Emergency Light Testing service.

All commercial and industrial buildings must be fitted with an Emergency Lighting System to ensure safe evacuation in the case of an emergency.

It is vital that these systems are properly maintained, not only because it is a statutory requirement and most insurance companies require it, but because the safety of you and staff may depend on it.

We can arrange regular inspection, testing and certification of emergency lighting systems every 6 or 12 months to ensure your premises fully comply with BS5266-1. We’ll also provide the required documentation and log book.

Our inspection and testing procedures include the following:

• • Luminaire duration testing
  • Cleaning of diffusers
  • Battery charging functional check
  • Labelling of luminaires
  • Supply of test results and/or log books
  • Advice on any improvements required
  • Certification

The purpose of emergency lighting testing is to ensure that emergency lights remain fully functional (for the specified duration) during mains electrical failure and that all lighting and exit signs are up to date with current legislation and are adequate for the purpose intended.

BS5266 recommends that emergency lighting systems be regularly serviced by ‘competent’ persons, these being persons with the necessary knowledge, skills and training to undertake emergency lighting servicing procedures.

Implementation of a periodic system of inspection and testing ensures that emergency lighting systems remain reliable at all times and that in the event of an emergency or power failure, the emergency lighting operates, ensuring that people can safely evacuate the building.
